Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow

Dedicated to my Asasi friends;



 Wow. Looks like we’ve come to the end of this crazy roller-coaster ride we call Asasi. I know this is a blog post, but I find myself sincerely speechless; I have so many things to say, but at the same time I can’t. We’ve had one hell of a ride, haven’t we, my friends? All the ups and downs of being here, all the loops and turns and shocks and surprises that we’ve experienced as students; and I can’t be more thankful for them. After all, the best roller coasters have the sharpest turns, don’t they? Thanks everyone, for being my friends here, for all the laughs and for all the stories that I’ll be able to tell my kids later on. When I arrived, I wasn’t very excited about my prospects here; and thought only the worst of this place, but you guys changed that and showed me how much of a naïve idiot I was back then; because it doesn’t matter where you are, what counts is who you’re with. I’ve had a blast, really, and I know that I don’t show it much but I really do cherish the moments we shared and bonds we created and as much as it hurts my ego to say it, I’ll miss you all. But this isn’t just about goodbyes, it’s about beginnings. We’ll get off from this ride, and get in line for a new one; they may not be the same, and some might have to wait longer than others but we’ll have fun either way, and I’ll always remember the ‘roller coaster’ I rode with my first bunch of college friends. I don’t have any parting gifts or song dedications (there are a whole bunch of songs that adequately describe how I feel, if only I had the heart to listen to them), but I’ll leave you with this: Thanks everyone, and sorry for all my mistakes. In case we don’t see each other again, goodbye and good luck; and remember: the pain of parting is nothing compared to the joy of meeting again. Peace Out.
